I think they will basically have to run the table, but it's an overall weak schedule this year.
Five of their conference games are at home. They do have to go to Washington, and Mike Leach teams always give them trouble, but the rest of the PAC looks bad heading into this season.
They basically have a three game season. Get past their rival, survive Wazzu, and upset what may or may not be a good UDub.
Because of that favorable schedule, they are being hyped as a playoff contender. I believe they will be another solid KWhitt team. They'll be tough to beat.
